OVERVIEW
Refridge is an app that helps families and students track items in their fridge with gamification and AI-suggested recipes to reduce food waste.
OUR RESEARCH
After conducting numerous surveys among students and parents in the Vancouver area, we created our ideal user personal: Zoey Tang, a busy student who wants to learn to cook more and use up her ingredients in time.
We created a user journey of what her process looks like when buying groceries, pinpointing user pains.
WHAT’S THE PROBLEM? 🔎
As university students, we struggle with keeping track of groceries and expiration dates. One day, our bag of vegetables went bad a day after buying it; this sparked a question: how much food is wasted from simple things like forgetting expiration dates or just a lack of motivation to use them?
